Episode 38: Carlita Farmer - From Struggling Runner to Conquering The Uwharrie 100
from The Ultra Running Guys · host The Ultra Running Guys
We first connected with Carlita Farmer late last year when she reached out to share about her first 100 mile finish, the grueling Uwharrie 100. And she shows no sign of slowing down. But that wasn't always her story. In high school, Carlita struggled to finish the 3 mile loop at the local park. Often, she would target simply running to the next light pole. Fast forward, and this mom of 2 jumped into the ultra world when COVID shut down her gym, keeping her from competitive power lifting, and she has not looked back. Be sure to follow Carlita on IG at https://www.instagram.com/lita_pita1523/ and tune in tomorrow for the entire episode. Enjoy!
